A blog post by Jim Hogan of Desmogblog: view it here. Jim sheds some light on where the new PR front group on coal is getting their funding. Guess what? Its the coal industry. Basically the coal industry is the main face of coal. An excerpt from Jim’s blog is below and you can view the rest here. On a side note, they are still claiming that coal provides over 50% of our electricity which is no longer true. As of last month its actually 42.6%. For a more copmlete review of the lies they are spreading see this blog post.
FACES describes itself as “an alliance of people from all walks of life who are joining forces to educate lawmakers and the general public about the importance of coal and coal mining.” But Adfero’s client list includes Koch Industries and the US Chamber of Commerce, two leaders in the fight to confuse, distort and deny the science of climate change - and especially to block government action that might affect their bottom line.
